DETROIT -- J.D. Martinezs ninth-inning sacrifice fly scored Torii Hunter with the winning run and the Detroit Tigers beat the Minnesota Twins 4-3 Sunday. Hunter led off the ninth with a single off Casey Fein (3-3), and Miguel Cabrera rifled a line drive that almost knocked over shortstop Dany Santana as he made a leaping catch. Victor Martinez then hit a fly ball to the right-field wall, and Oswaldo Arcia dropped it for an error. That put runners on the corners, and J.D. Martinez followed with a fly to medium-depth centre. Hunter never hesitated, and scored easily when Sam Fulds throw was badly off line. Joe Nathan (3-2) pitched a scoreless ninth. Minnesota starter Ricky Nolasco allowed three runs in 5 1-3 innings, while Detroits Rick Porcello pitched seven, also giving up three runs. The Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the first thanks to a defensive mistake by Arcia. With a runner on third and two out, Arcia, who has struggled defensively all series, lost a routine flyball in the sun to give Victor Martinez an easy RBI double. In the second, it was Josh Willingham who misplayed Austin Jacksons liner into the left-field corner, turning a probable double into a stand-up triple. Nick Castellanos followed with a sacrifice fly to make it 2-0. The Twins took the lead with three runs in the sixth. Doubles by Joe Mauer and Willingham provided the first run, and Kendrys Morales bringing home the second with a base hit. After a walk to Arcia, Kurt Suzuki lined a single to left, and Minnesota third-base coach Joe Vavra stunned all 41,462 fans by waving the plodding Morales around third. J.D. Martinezs throw had the runner beat by 15 feet, but Alex Avila couldnt handle it, allowing the run to score. Ricky Nolasco, though, couldnt hold the lead. In the bottom of the inning, Nick Castellanos doubled in the tying run, and Nolasco intentionally walked Alex Avila to load the bases with one. It was a risky move, since rookie Eugenio Suarez had three extra-base hits on Saturday, but Jared Burton came out of the bullpen to induce an infield fly. Burton then retired Ian Kinsler to end the inning, with the score tied at three. The Tigers threatened again in the seventh after walks to Cabrera and Victor Martinez, but Matt Guerrier got them out of the jam. Joba Chamberlain and Joe Nathan allowed two runners in the eighth and ninth innings, respectively, NOTES: Both teams made roster moves before the game. The Tigers called up LHP Blaine Hardy from Triple-A Toledo to serve as the long man in a struggling bullpen, and sent rookie RHP Corey Knebel back to the Mud Hens. The Twins placed Trevor Plouffe on the 15-day disabled list with the oblique strain he sustained in Saturdays loss, and called up Pedro Florimon from Triple-A Rochester. Khalil Mack Womens Jersey .

"Hopefully well get all this out of the way," he said, "and everyone will be healthy the rest of the year." Zimmerman was placed on the 15-day disabled list Sunday and is expected to miss between four to six weeks. He was injured in the fifth inning of Saturdays 6-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves while getting picked off as he dove back to second base. "I thought just my nail had bent back, because the nail was black and blue and bleeding," Zimmerman said. "It was the whole thumb, not just the nail. It stinks but it happens. It was just a freak accident." Infielder Zach Walters was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to take Zimmermans spot on the 25-man roster. Walters hit .290 with three doubles and three RBIs in nine games at Syracuse. Washington a few minutes before the first pitch that centre fielder Nate McLouth had been scratched from the lineup with an undisclosed injury. Bryce Harper moved from left field to centre field and went from sixth in the batting order to second. Kevin Frandsen took Harpers spot in left field and batted sixth. The Nationals received some good news Sunday when right fielder Jayson Werth returned to the lineup. A sore groin kept Werth from playing in the field Saturday. He singled as a pinch-hitter in the eighth. Centre fielder Denard Span was placed on the seven-day disabled list Saturdaay with concussion symptoms, but said he feels better.dddddddddddd Span missed 70 games with Minnesota in 2011 because of concussion symptoms following a collision at home plate. He was injured Friday after colliding on the basepath with Braves second baseman Dan Uggla. "If I had to play today I could play," Span said. "But I understand with my history that its best for me to go ahead and go on the 7-day DL, just to be safe, and think about the long rest of the season and also the rest of my life." General manager Mike Rizzo said Zimmerman will see a hand specialist at the Cleveland Clinic on Monday. Zimmerman, in his eighth season, has a .286 career average, 181 homers and 678 RBIs. In 33 at-bats this year, hes hitting .364 with two homers and six RBIs. With Zimmerman out of the lineup, Anthony Rendon moved from second base to third and Danny Espinosa started at second. If theres good news to come from Zimmermans injury, perhaps the time off will allow him to rest his right shoulder. Zimmerman won an NL Gold Glove award in 2009 but has dealt with shoulder problems in recent years. He underwent surgery after the 2012 season. He said a few days ago that switching from an over-the-top delivery to more of a sidearm throw is "a work in progress, but theres no pain." On April 5 in Washington, Zimmermans throwing error led to a pair of unearned runs in a loss to Atlanta. The Nationals signed Zimmerman to a six-year, $100 million contract extension on Feb. 26, 2012. ' ' '
